Yes, I imagine that links posted in comments are rendered by the WordPress engine and that you are constrained by the capability thereof.

Long live the right-click. Or Ctrl-click if you’re on a Mac, which I am at home.

Ahh… The comment links! Yes, I have no idea how to make those a new window. Sorry.

I wasn’t quite clear enough – I should have said any external links – like the Muppet caught by the speed camera I posted yesterday. Makes perfect sense for Razzball links to open in the same tab/window.

All that said, the right-click is a nice work-around.

So you’re still on Razzball then. Then we try and make every none Razzball link in a post open in a new window. As for the sidebar links — A) I wouldn’t know how to get them to open in a new window. B) I wouldn’t do it any way because most those sites open in the same window to us, so it wouldn’t be fair to do the opposite to them. C) There never is a C, is there?

I think the standard protocol is to have all links open in the same window because a user can decide if they want to open it in a new tab by right clicking. But we’re not completely standard. I think it’s easier to have all links open in a new window because who wants their reading interrupted by a webpage change? But it is what it is, ya know?

Betcha never thought an answer to that question would be this long, huh?

Off topic – I know it’s not your thing, but can you find out if it’s possible for any links that are included in a post to be configured so that they open in a new tab or window (although I doubt any Razzballers use IE!) when they are clicked?

That way we never have to leave the Razz!
